Wisconsin Sea Grant has developed several place-based lesson plans, including one that has students imagine they are piloting the Edmund Fitzgerald and could re-decide the tragic fate of that Lake Superior shipwreck, Lake Superior watershed-based games that use mobile devices and two Google Lit trips.

Great Lakes Education Resources

These lessons and resources were developed by the Great Lakes Sea Grant Network and have all been tested by teachers in their classrooms. Organized around the eight Great Lakes Literacy Principles, many of them are easily adaptable for use in both formal and informal education settings.

Marine Education Resources

The Bridge provides "an ocean of teacher-approved marine education resources," including lesson plans and other resources, professional development listings and access to ocean science research and data. The Bridge is supported by NOAA and the National Marine Educators Association.
